Background: Sorafenib and irinotecan (NEXIRI regimen) showed promising activity with a disease control rate (DCR) of 65% in heavily pretreated mutated (mt) KRAS metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) patients in a phase I/II trial (Samalin et al. 2014).This multicentre randomized phase II trial aimed to determine the 2-month progression-free survival rate (2-PFS) of NEXIRI versus irinotecan or sorafenib monotherapy in mtRAS mCRC patients after failure of all approved active drugs at the time of the study. Methods: Patients PS ≤ 1 with progressive measurable and non-resectable mtKRAS (then RAS) mCRC pre-treated with irinotecan, oxaliplatin, fluoropyrimidines and bevacizumab (none regorafenib), were randomized in 3 arms: NEXIRI (irinotecan IV 120 (C1), 150 (C2) and 180mg/m² (C3) if diarrhea grade < 1 in a biweekly regimen combined with a fixed dose of sorafenib, 400mg twice daily) versus irinotecan alone (180mg/m²) versus sorafenib alone until progression or toxicity, with cross over to NEXIRI at progression for the monotherapy arms. The primary endpoint was the 2-PFS (RECIST v1.1). Pharmacokinetic, pharmacogenetics and pathologic translational studies were undertaken.Results: We included 173 patients (median age 62 [31-82]; PS 0/1: 38/61%) between 2012/09 and 2014/07 in 17 French centres. Main results are shown below (median follow-up 17.5 months). Conclusions: We confirmed the NEXIRI regimen efficacy in a randomized study for refractory mtRAS mCRC patients. These results justify comparing this combination to regorafenib or TAS 102 monotherapies in this population. Ancillary studies are ongoing to identify biomarkers.
